@@notmyname8527 thanks for your comment. Understand that this video is simply me sharing my personal impressions of a product. Your assumption I want to destroy the environment simply because I mentioned the change in packaging is ridiculous and untrue. I actually keep the packaging of all the products I review. And I use them for when I sell the items, give them to family and friends, or when I donate the products. I upcycle whenever possible. I don't just throw anything away. Cheers!

Same here.

@Imhalfamazing2U i ended up picking up $14 wired ones for my phone since I need to make calls. If music only these are still good

@@yeon723 its 14$ on amazon Black Friday sales

I am so sorry for this crazy late response! The Skullcandy Dime did not require an app to operate or access functions/features so I never needed Skull-IQ. I think the Dime Evo can connect to the app, but not the plain Dime I reviewed. Anyhow, I hope you've found a solution. If not, then here's what I've gathered from reading multiple forum posts in regards to this issue with Skullcandy devices.. the only solution that may work is doing a factory reset. Here's what I suggest: 1) With your headset disconnected and turned off, delete the app completely including any connected device data; 2) Remove your headset from the "Paired Device" list of your phone, deactivate Bluetooth, then turn your phone off and on -- do a full power down and start up, not just a basic restart; 3) Do the factory reset on you headset -- I think you have to press and hold both the volume up and down buttons for a while, but please double-check with your manual or Skullcandy's support page on how to do this; 4) Once you've done all that, turn on your phone's Bluetooth and try to connect your headset to your phone. Now you have 3 scenarios: A) If it doesn't pair up then try it with another Bluetooth-capable device like a tablet or laptop, or another smartphone if you have one available -- just make sure it's not a device you've paired to before or your headset is removed from the "Paired Device" list. If it pairs up with another device then it's an issue with your original phone; if it doesn't then it's an issue with the headset and you'll have to RMA it. OR B) If it does pair with your phone, see if it works normally WITHOUT the app -- you should have basic functions like volume and track controls. Once you've confirmed you have those basic functions, then download the IQ app and run it. Once activated it should recognize and link to your headset automatically; if it doesn't then the issue is the app itself. OR C) Now if it pairs just fine without the app, AND works with the app once installed and running, you may get an "update available" for your headphones. If your headphones still pairs and works with full functionality after the update, then you know the problem has been resolved. If after the update your headset no longer connects, then it's the update that's screwing things up. Repeat the process but do NOT update your headset. My apologies once again for not responding sooner. And sorry this reply is a little long-winded. I hope you've already resolved your issue, but if not I hope this troubleshooting will do the trick. Cheers!

@@RaviDewitt Hello, and thank you for your question. Yes, the Clarity 101 Plus comes with a wireless charging case. Cheers!

@@Pey_Hwa thanks for your comment. So the new version has touch controls?? That's disappointing. Like you, I think physical buttons are great, and on the isports they were very convenient. I've been busy for the past year so I haven't been keeping up with new products. I hope to be able to post reviews again soon. Cheers!

@@novumverum Hope all goes well for you. If you are doing any new rev3soon, will love to see you do one for the new Jabra 10 Gen 2, they have physical button control.

@@Pey_Hwa the Elite 10 Gen 2? I think that just came out. I do have one other review I've been working on (on and off) for the past year, but I'll try to make the Elite 10 my first 2024 new product review. Cheers!

So I was shopping for the Jabra Elite 10 Gen 2 but I discovered that Jabra is discontinuing the Elite lineup altogether 😞

@@novumverum yes. it is the Swan song for Jabra

@@nantyfields3226 sorry for the late response. From what I recall, there is no way to turn them on without the case. Unfortunately I no longer have these so I can't verify. I do remember these go into sleep/standby mode when there's no activity for a long period of time (I think 30mins). You can then wake them up by opening the JBL app. However, they will turn off if not connected to a device. I wish I could give you a more confident answer. Sorry I can't be of more help. Cheers!

Yep, same here, i have those, and they had to give me a brand new pair cause they didnt work properly :/

Thanks for this. I really appreciate it! I've been extremely preoccupied with work I haven't had time to finish several reviews I started since my last post. I'm working on completing one particular product and hope to have it posted this week. Thanks for your support. Cheers!

I'm sorry to hear that your buds aren't charging. I suggest contacting Monster directly, or return/exchange it with the retailer if you can. Monster customer service from my experience has been top-notch, and I've also had received replacements or refunds from Amazon sellers on the rare occasions I had an issue which were damaged products/packaging due to mishandling during shipping. I gave my Mission V1 to a friend of mine awhile back and he's had no issues at all. I do hope you can get a replacement. Good luck!

Thanks for your concern. I really appreciate it. I'm doing well, just working a lot so I haven't had time to do reviews. I am finishing up one product review I started in July so it's well overdue lol! Again, thanks for reaching out. Cheers!

@@novumverum glad to know all is well. Stay safe and healthy!

Hello, and thanks for your comment. I knew about high-end audio systems needing "warming up" as it were. But I actually never considered that for small consumer electronics, so thank you for the tip! When I reviewed speakers, I usually used them for a couple of days before doing the review tests. But I wasn't consistent from speaker to speaker. I'll definitely keep that in mind when I feel comfortable reviewing speakers again. Cheers!

@@novumverum Yes, all electronics, big and small!

Thanks for your comment. I realize that my videos are quite long and certainly not for everyone. With everyone in a rush for no real reason, I understand where you're coming from. However there are tons of reviewers out there who simply mention the feature set and tell you where to buy the products if that's more your speed. It would be even faster if you yourself would go to a product page and read the product description. Personally, I prefer reviewers who are thorough, and those are the ones I try to emulate. Granted at the time of this review, I was still new to video composition and editing, and tbh I'm still learning. In retrospect, I probably could cut this particular review down to about 12 minutes. But I wouldn't omit information just to shorten video lengths. Cheers!

Thanks for your comment. I'm sorry, I just assumed everyone knew how to connect Bluetooth devices. But you are right, there are people like yourself who don't know how to do this. Maybe I'll do an instructional video when I can get back to reviewing. Thanks for pointing this out. Cheers!

Apologies for the extremely late response. Both of the Soundcore Flare Mini and Anker Soundcore 2 have their pros and cons. However, between the two, the Anker Soundcore 2 is an older model (2017). The Flare Mini launched a couple of years later, which I believe is the same year Anker made "Soundcore" a wholly separate brand and division. I do suggest you consider Soundcore's latest lineup, the Motion series. These launched Summer 2023. I wasn't able to get a set to review, but I've been able to listen to the Motion+ and the Motion X600. The Motion+ is their latest compact speaker, whereas the X600 is much larger. Both sound far better than the much older models. They are a bit pricier though so at the end of the day, the choice would be up to your budget. I hope that helps somewhat. Cheers!

Hello, and thanks for your question! I have to say that the JBL Bluetooth speakers I've listened to are far clearer and cleaner, including the Clip series. However, when compared to the Clips the Soundcore Flare speakers are much louder. So at the end of the day it all depends on what your use case is. Isee a lot of people use the Clips at work or at play, clipped to their belts or backpacks. Abd most people I've met use the stand-up cannister-style speakers at home or in the backyard on a tabletop. I hope that helps. Cheers!

Hello, and thank you for your question. This is just like any other webcam, and so long as you have the software, it can be used with a green screen. I've used it with Zoom which has their own background effects and it worked just fine. However, as I mentioned in the review, optimum capture distance is around 3-4 feet, and the subject needs to be centered in the frame. You'll definitely need to experiment with your setup (camera angle, lighting, etc) to get the most out of this webcam. So, as long as your aware of it capabilities and limitations, I can honestly say the DW49 is a decent, budget-friendly option for streaming and video conferencing.

Hello and thank you for your question. The only way to adjust/enhance the bass is to use an equalizer. Most music and streaming apps have their own equalizer built in. You could also download a dedicated equalizer app but I haven't used any so can't recommend anything specific. With these apps, they actually manipulate the audio file as it transmits to your buds. The downside to this is that not all your audio files will be will sound great. For example, if you have a track that's already heavy on the bass but you turn up the bass in the equalizer, the bass can become distorted. Also equalizer apps don't account for your buds' capabilities, so the speakers and drivers may not be able to handle heavy bass, higher volumes, etc. I don't believe Holy High has an app, but other brands like Sony, Soundcore, and JBL, all have accompanying apps that tweek the hardware and not the file. I find these to sound more consistent from track to track, no matter the quality and/or compression of the audio files. I think I went a little overboard with this so my apologies lol! But I hope I answered your question. Cheers!

Hello, and thank you for your comment. Yes, I was made aware of the control functions on the app. Not too sure why it wasn't when I first downloaded but it was there when I reinstalled it. I'll pin the correction when I have a chance. Thank you for reminding me. Real life takes precedence and sadly I just haven't been able to do anything on my channel these last few months. Currently working on another review (which has had its own challenges) so I'm hoping to post that real soon. But back to the L3P. As for the sound quality, yes these are very capable earbuds, however the initial out-of-box experience wasn't great. A balanced, neutral audio setting would've been great but mine sounded atrocious, and the presets were better, but some sounded flat while others seemed unbalanced. For something that was hyped up on social media, it didn't meet expectations. I had to manually manipulate the equalizer to get decent sound quality. But for consumers who use presets, or those who don't know how to use an equalizer, this would be a disappointment. That's what I was trying to convey in my review. Anyhow, thanks again! I really do enjoy getting these questions and comments. Cheers!
